Arkansas Bengal Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 [url="http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000053094/article/carson-palmer-no-room-for-chad-johnson-on-raiders?module=HP11_headline_stack"]http://www.nfl.com/n..._headline_stack[/url] [b] Carson Palmer: No room for Chad Johnson on Raiders[/b] [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/oaklandraiders/profile?team=OAK"]Oakland Raiders[/url] quarterback [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/carsonpalmer/2505245/profile"]Carson Palmer[/url] played alongside Chad Johnson for seven seasons with the [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/cincinnatibengals/profile?team=CIN"]Cincinnati Bengals[/url], forming one of the better QB-WR combos in franchise history. Johnson's rather epic free fall from grace has him looking for work, but it's unlikely teams will come calling any time soon -- especially the [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/oaklandraiders/profile?team=OAK"]Raiders[/url]. Oakland's young group of receivers is banged up after two preseason games. [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/jacobyford/497288/profile"]Jacoby Ford[/url] is in a protective boot after injuring his foot. [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/denariusmoore/2495315/profile"]Denarius Moore[/url]'s hamstring remains a nuisance, and [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/darriusheyward-bey/80427/profile"]Darrius Heyward-Bey[/url] is back at practice after spraining his shoulder in last Friday's loss to the [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/arizonacardinals/profile?team=ARI"]Cardinals[/url]. Despite the rash of injuries, Palmer sees no reason to upset the apple cart by signing Johnson -- but it's nothing personal. "I had a great time playing with Chad. I had no issues with him at all. He'd be a great add for any team but we've got young guys that are just coming along," Palmer told Comcast SportsNet California, [url="http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/blog/eye-on-football/19868903/carson-palmer-speaks-fondly-of-chad-johnson-but-says-raiders-dont-need-him"]via its Bay Area affiliate[/url]. "I mean Denarius will be back any day. Jacoby's deal is not that bad. So we're not going to give up on any of those guys. They're too good of players and young." Palmer's excitement over the [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/oaklandraiders/profile?team=OAK"]Raiders[/url]' collection of pass-catchers is mostly justified. Along with Moore and Ford, Heyward-Bey comes off his best season, while [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/rodstreater/2535869/profile"]Rod Streater[/url] has turned heads in recent weeks. Chad Johnson to the [url="http://www.nfl.com/teams/oaklandraiders/profile?team=OAK"]Raiders[/url] might have made sense in some bygone season under Al Davis, but coach [url="http://www.nfl.com/player/dennisallen/2533356/profile"]Dennis Allen[/url] and friends have nothing to gain by adding the 34-year-old sideshow in 2012. Palmer stressed that he "got along great" with Johnson back in the day and offered encouragement for his friend: "Chad's going to bounce back. He's been through a lot, not just in his NFL career, but throughout his entire life. I know Chad will bounce back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That's awesome. However, their best player is being limited on his touches. I could see McFadden leading the league in rushing this year. After CP throws 3 INTs in the opener, McFadden is going to get 30 carries a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carson threw a bad INT, but either Jacoby Ford or Denarius Moore - forget who - dropped 2 or 3 VERY catchable passes and they were moving the ball well. I also think (assuming he's healthy, which has been an issue for him) that D-Mac is primed for a huge year. He's a serious weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Don't be sensitive. Look, I think baseball is for teh ghey's but you don't see me in there shitting it up on every baseball thread. You know why? Cause my butt isn't sore like yours is when the subject is Carson. You and a handful of others just can't leave well enough alone. You must come defend shitty MB no matter what. Any other GM performs like MB and he would have been fired 50x over. Oh and I could care less about Carson also, but I chose not too. In fact I couldn't care more. He is a hero, probalby more important than Neal Armstrong (but maybe not as important as Neal Peart). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I don't defend or crucify MB and I never have. I don't care enough. All I want is my favorite ball team to win. If they lose, I'll be fine and it's not going to change my life at all. MB??? I've never had an opinion of Mike Brown. I like following the game. Cincinnati just happened to be the team I took a liking to as a kid. And why wouldn't I want Carson to tumble? He left MY FAVORITE TEAM. He is now the enemy. I feel the same for almost every former Bengal. Fanene, Rucker... they didn't mean shit after the offseason began. Spikes, Simmons, Anderson, Jones, Johnson - the same with them. I'd have no clue what Carson would even be up to if it weren't for this board. I don't check on his games. I hope he throws 30 INTs this year and the Raiders finish 0-16 so we get the 33rd pick in the draft. After that, Carson can throw himself out of the league for all I care because he is what Brady is, Roethlisbeger is, Flacco is, Rivers is, and any other QB that doesn't play for the Bengals: the enemy. Am I supposed to root for a guy who showed he'd rather retire than play for the team I've followed my entire life? If you and a few others wants to root the the individual, I'm down with that, but I am going to continue to back my team and hate on the entire NFL outside of the guys playing in orange and black.

Tigris Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Saying I defend MB shows that you have no idea what you're talking about and you've mistakenly lumped me into a category you've thrown so many others in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sois Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 If a dude left your job to go to the competitor, would you hate him? Or would you just remember all the awesome times yall had? I like former Bengals becuase they provided some happiness. Carson was a beacon of light. I like all those other dudes you mentioned too. Spikes is my favorite Bengals defender ever. Willie was awesome. I do dislike some former Bengals like Livings cause he was shitty and only caused grief. So fuck him, we can agree on that.
